Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 56.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.43 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 31.3.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 111.
- ✓ Safe hands — 23 catches in 53 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 46 × 40% · Batting 63 × 30% · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.45 for the level played (2nd grade 7 · 3rd grade 16 · Club 4). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 27 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 22 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 53 matches — 0.45 per match.
- Batting
- 1,365 runs in 52 innings, adjusted average 31.3, strike rate 56.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 0.7 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 53 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
